Filed: K-1 Visa Country: Peru
Timeline

2 suggestions for you at this stage:

1.) Look at some RFE threads and read about the interviews for the country that your beloved is filing from. Whatever evidences are asked for, start making sure you are collecting them now. My husband and I sent letters, post cards, and regular letters back and forth. This was one of the examples of evidence that was looked at during the interview in Lima. All the folks who have walked this path befor you are a goldmine for information.

2.) Develop a new time-consuming hobby or get a 2nd job to provide lots of distraction. This waiting really, really sucks. There are people who will brag about getting their stuff done in two weeks and "Tee hee. Do what I did--it works. Tee hee." Don't let that discourage you. For us, we started the process in spring of 2011 and the K-1 visa was received in April of 2012. Ours was a little longer than most but not really outside the norm. EXPECT delays and then you can only be pleasantly impressed if they don't occur.

Your beloved is completely worth the mess of going through this. As someone else on here has stated, you aren't just sending flowers or writing poetry, you are getting involved in government controlled delays and paperwork. If THAT is not a true demonstration of love, nothing is!
